This took me two days. Smooth Bristol paper (11x14), mostly mechanical HB pencil with 4B for the dark spots. Drink up, me hearties, yo ho!

EDIT: 07/16- I took out my trusty ol' 6B and smoothed Mr. Turner and Captain Sparrow more to my liking. The original submission is in my scraps. A big part of my problem here is that these are done with graphite, which reflects the light from the scanner in the blackest places. I think the best solution to this is to smash all machinery and go live in a cave in the woods.

EDIT: 08/14- I went ahead and scanned this in sideways and pasted the two pieces together so you could get the full view of the drawing. I was never quite happy with how it was cropped before.





I notice that I recently have a Print Request for this piece. Unfortunately, I tried to make it a print once before and it was rejected by DeviantArt for copyright reasons. Sorry, guys.

Yeah, the nose looks really funky in this pic because there's such harsh light coming at it. I tried to draw in the outline of the nose, but I had to erase it. I could hear my old art teacher screaming in my brain, "NO OUTLINING!"
